                                                                                 This is a complicated subject because of whether tourism is a good or a bad thing  depends on your point of view, It has advantages and disadvantages, in my opinion. For  tourists, being able to visit other countries and see different ways of the life is great.  These days, it’s getting cheaper and cheaper to do this, so more and more people can  afford for it. As a result, people from different countries in the world have a greater  amount understanding of each other. which can only be a good thing. Tourists also spend  lots of money and this is very good for the economies of the coutries they visit. In fact, it  not having money from tourism would cause some countries major problems. It is hard  to say in general whether tourism is good or not either because there are two sides to the argument.
